Tanjung Tuan Recreational Forest

Tanjung Tuan Recreational Forest covers a forested headland south of Port Dickson, where coastal cliffs meet the Strait of Malacca and trails climb toward the historic Cape Rachado Lighthouse. In migration season, raptors ride the thermals above the trees—one of Peninsular Malaysia's noted birdwatching windows for travellers who time their visit with spring passages. Expect humid forest paths, sea viewpoints and a mix of nature and maritime history along the same short network of walks. Wear trail shoes, carry water and check local advice on raptor peak weeks if that is your main reason to visit; the headland rewards both casual hikers and dedicated birders.
